17:17 pdurbin   dotplus: are you still doing HPC?
17:21 hydrajump any heka (https://github.com/mozilla-services/heka) users?
17:21 hydrajump been struggling with riemann for a week and considering alternatives maybe heka
17:22 pdurbin   huh. so it's for time series data?
17:23 hydrajump pdurbin: it's for everything apparently

17:25 pdurbin   hmm, ok
17:25 pdurbin   hydrajump: your data is time series data?
17:28 hydrajump pdurbin: data or events look like this: service-up - when service is starting, service-exception - when strange exception
17:28 hydrajump happened, service-heartbeat, 'job ' + type + ' start, 'job ' + type + ' finish'
17:28 hydrajump don't know if that is classified as time series
17:29 pdurbin   sounds like logs
17:30 hydrajump those mentioned are "events" sent directly from nodejs apps and meant to go to a monitoring solution that will provide real time monitoring/ alerting
17:32 pdurbin   ok. I wonder if logstash would be useful here.
17:33 hydrajump from the heka video it is supposedly does what logstash does and more without the memory overhead of jvm etc.
17:34 hydrajump heka written in go
17:35 pdurbin   ah, a way to avoid the jvm
17:36 hydrajump and provides other features as well not just that. I just wanted to hear someone's experience with it
